Plays most any disc

The slim and stylish Pioneer DV420VK can play DVDs containing TV content or home movies that you've recorded yourself. It plays DVDs, DVD-R/RWs, Dual Layer DVD-Rs, CDs, CD-R/RWs, WMA and MP3s, plus its Disc Navigator features makes it easier to browse and view the JPEG picture files of your digital photos on CD-R/RWs. There's even JPEG/MP3 simultaneous playback so you can play music during a slide show. This progressive scan DVD player also features DivX video playback.

Rising to the occasion

The DV420VK makes the most out of all your discs with 1080p upscaling via HDMI. That means you can play your regular old DVDs on this player, and, if connected to the HDMI input on your high definition television, watch them all in 1080p resolution. HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) allows the transfer of both high quality audio and video through one cable, giving you the best resolution with the least cable clutter.

PureCinema 2:3 progressive scan

Pioneer's 2:3 Pull-Down PureCinema progressive scan system, along with a 12-bit/108 MHz video digital-to-analog converter, retains more of the clarity and subtlety of the original cinema experience. DVDs of movies originally shot on film can now display smooth, high-resolution moving images that are free of artifacts and jagged edges. PureCinema progressive scan makes for the best possible picture. For great audio, there are outputs for Dolby Digital and DTS Surround, plus a high-end 24-bit/96 kHz audio digital-to-analog converter for superb musical performance.

Don't get lost

Disc Navigator makes it simple to browse through digital disc content to find what you want to play. Press PLAY to start a slide show from the first stored folder/picture on a disc containing JPEG picture files. Adjust the image size to fill as much of the screen as possible, magnifying it by a factor of 2 or 4 if you choose. The DV420VK has the ability to play MP3 and WMA audio, and the Disc Navigator also makes it easier to access and play these digital audio files recorded on CD-R/RW discs.

Delivered just the way you like it

The DV420VK makes it easy to fine-tune picture settings, including sharpness, brightness, contrast, gamma (for picture warmth), hue (for red/green balance), and chroma level (for color saturation). A Dialogue Enhancer feature comes in handy when watching movies. You can set the Dialogue Enhancer at high, medium, low, or off (default), depending on how much you want a movie's dialogue to stand out from background sound in the soundtrack.
